[TIMOB-3548] Android: textArea in an alertDialog not visible if width is a percent

A textArea in an alertDialog will not display until after you change orientation if the width is set to a percent. Will display fine if the width is static or not set.

Step 1: create a mobile project
Step 2: paste the example into your app.js
Step 3: launch the app on a android 1.6 device
Step 4: click the button
Step 5: notice that the alertDialog does not have a textArea in it
Step 6: change the orientation of the device
Step 7: notice that the textArea appears
Step 8: repeat the above steps but change the width:'90%' to width:120
Step 9: notice that textArea appears
Step 10: repeat the above steps on a non-1.6 device, and notice the textArea displaying when using a % for the width

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
        backgroundColor: 'yellow'
});

var view = Ti.UI.createView({
        backgroundColor: 'green'
});

var dialog = Titanium.UI.createAlertDialog({
   buttonNames : ['Save', 'Cancel'],
   title               : 'Edit task name',
   androidView   : view
});
    
var taskNameArea = Titanium.UI.createTextArea({
    width: '90%',
    // width: 120
});
view.add(taskNameArea);

var button = Ti.UI.createButton({
    title: 'click',
    height: 50,
    width: 100,
    top: 20
});
button.addEventListener('click', function(e){
    dialog.show();
});

win.add(button);
win.open();
